[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the thoughtful responses. We are nowhere near the point of fostering yet but I am really asking a lot of questions. I can understand the high potential for reunification in cases where a parent is actively in treatment for addiction issues etc. I guess I was more unsure when it came to issues of severe physical abuse/neglect. I figure if a parent is acting that bad then they have such severe mental and emotional problems that it seems impossiblet o overcome. But I a PP made a point that almost all kids want to hope for the best in their families and maybe the devil you know is better than an unknown family. Very interesting topic and I have a ton a respect and admiration for foster families.[/quote] I think often the severe physical abuse and neglect are related to the birth parent's addictions.
